jesslinn Just because we are not competing with HFTs does not mean that it is not useful to monitor the very delays that ganz mentioned. Wouldn't you like to know if you get your ticks 600 msec faster from one vendor than another or even more important, that a particular tick is greatly delayed from the average from a given vendor. This is not possible without keeping millisecond timestamps since all of the delays normally add to less than a second. The bottom line is you need to be very fast to use ms. But you are not. You can't operate using sub-seconds timeframe in a proper manner if you are not being co-located or using charts. The sub-second timeframe is another kind of business: other rules, requirements, speeds, TCO and so on. So you you will see a lot and you've never able to use it as it should be. This is just the same as to be a left-side-chart analytic. One could talk or could dream but unable to make any money there. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2013-11-27 20:34:09
